More Winter Fettling

Anyone who lives in the UK will have spotted that it has been a bit wet recently. For me, one thing that means is less riding, and more fixing.

Last week's job was another "winter-ising" moment. My commuter/utility/child-carrying MTB needed some full length guards for the next few months. As usual that means trying to stick things on a bike that doesn't have any handy screw holes...


Oh yeah - more P clip magic. This time I needed two on the fork legs, two at the top, and the piece-de-resistance: a home made alloy bracket running across the fork to hold the front guard mount. Its just a small piece of 4mm aluminium cut to size and drilled (5mm) for the mounting bolts. It's been a while since metalwork class at school!

That's it for now...
